Pirate: My villain's identity is exposed

Chapter 230: Founding of Jones Island

"Next, can we have a good talk?"

Sherlock looked at the female warlord.

The female warlord swallowed and nodded.

"Okay, then you will be the commander of the entire city defense army."

The implication of Sherlock's words was that the bald warlord's army was also owned by the red-haired female warlord. There was a hint of joy in the female warlord's eyes, but more of worry and confusion.

"As my reward for you, at least you have more brains than him."

Sherlock stretched out his hand and said, "Introduce yourself."

The female warlord paused, put down her cigarette, and said, "Caitlin."

Sherlock nodded slightly, "Okay, Caitlin, briefly talk about the situation on the island that I can't see."

Caitlin hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"This island has been divided by four major warlords until the Betis Pirates arrived. They swallowed up the two major warlords on the coast. Coles and I joined forces to defend the interior. There are a total of 500 million residents on the island. , most of them have been displaced, and the remaining half have either joined the army or become pirates. My army has a total of 35 people, and Coles’ army has 40 people."

After Caitlin introduced the details, she asked Sherlock tentatively, "Do you plan to become the ruler here?"

The corner of Sherlock's mouth rose, "I will leave a sum of money for you to build the country, and the army will be managed by you. Both the people and the army are responsible to you, and you are responsible to me, which is my investment in you, but I don't like tyranny. He will give you a legal system for your country to use and teach you how to make the island rich."

Caitlin was stunned, unable to believe Sherlock's words.

Investment allowed her to build a country, which she had always dreamed of. Years of war had left the island extremely barren.

"what would you like?"

Caitlin finally asked the key, even if a businessman invests, he also requires a return.

What does a great pirate like Sherlock want?

"What I want is simple."

Sherlock said, "First, the island is mine. You are just managing it on behalf of me. You can make your own decisions at ordinary times. You must obey my instructions at critical moments."

"Second, 20% of the money earned must be handed over, and the other 50% is used for the people, including infrastructure construction, people's welfare, etc. I will send a consultant to help you later, and the remaining 30% will be used as Spend your military and state machinery."

Caitlin frowned, 50% used for the people?

Her current expenses are basically all consumed by the army, and they are all somewhat stretched.

"How much will you give me in the initial stage?"

Sherlock held out two fingers and said, "2 billion as starting capital."

Caitlin was stunned, so much money!

She hadn't thought about it at all.

This is undoubtedly a timely help.

"Although it's not much, since the country has just been founded, everything must be saved."

Sherlock touched his chin and continued, "There are abundant rubber resources on the island. If we use them, we will create more profits in the future."

"Yes!"

Caitlin had no rebellious mood at all at this moment. She seemed to see the hope of this island.

Sherlock also discovered after observation that this female warlord was more capable of leadership, calm and intelligent than the other three warlords, so he decided to hand over the local political power to her.

Pipisia winked at Sherlock and said, "Would you like to buy a codex from me? I can give you a discount."

Thinking of how much money Sherlock had earned, Mrs. Pipicia seemed to see endless spending power.

Sherlock glanced at her and said, "No, I can write it myself."

"You don't want to use the Constitution, do you? This island is not suitable for socialism. It is too poor."

Pipisia complained personally.

Sherlock frowned, "Can you stop constantly searching for information in my head? This is very disrespectful of people's privacy."

"Oh."

Pipicia kissed her lips.

Caitlin didn't understand anything about their exchange, but she was getting a lot out of it now.

As soon as she left the tavern, Caitlin immediately ordered someone to plant the flag of the Sinister Pirates on the island to show her belonging.

Shylock also asked Baccarat to send Bailey, 30 boxes of gold and silver jewelry, equivalent to Bailey of exactly 200 billion.

Baccarat also sent a contract and handed it to Caitlin. After Caitlin signed it, she ordered someone to accept the money.

All this progressed quickly. In the afternoon, Sherlock returned to Betis's magnificent palace, preparing to let the cadres help Caitlin build the country in the past few days.

I've already thought of a name, and it's called Rich Jones Empire.

The next day, Caitlin's voice came from all the radios on the island.

"Dear people of Jones Island, I am Caitlin, and today I want to announce good news. The civil war has stopped!"

All the people on Jones Island were stunned.

The civil war has stopped. The civil war that has lasted for 30 years has finally stopped!

Some people cried, some cheered, and the whole island was boiling, thinking that Caitlin's army had unified the forces of the other three warlords.

Among the four major warlords, only Caitlin's army has a gentle attitude towards the people and will not force them to join the army or engage in slave trade. It is the warlord most supported by the people.

When I got the news that she won, I was even happier than during the Chinese New Year.

No, they don’t have a new year to live through.

The poor do not deserve holidays.

And today is their holiday.

"Long live!"

Cheers covered the island.

Sherlock touched his chin and felt that he had not chosen the wrong subordinate.

Caitlin continued on the radio: "Today, I want to announce that I have officially become the supreme leader of Jones Island, and Leah D. Houston generously gave us Jones Island support, drove away the Betis Pirates, and brought Will be the honorary president of our Rich Jones empire.”

"What? Are we going to establish a country?!"

"Rich Jones Empire!"

"Am I right?"

“Who is Leah D. Houston?”

"The legendary big pirate!"

Suddenly, the people were excited.

People began to speculate that the great changes on the island were related to Sherlock.

There is no need for Caitlin to make a special announcement. As long as a discerning person sees the pirate flag of the Sinister, they will know that this island will be under the jurisdiction of the Sinister Pirates from now on.

But what they didn't expect was that no pirate would ever help the refugees on an island build a country, and all the pirates would do so were the locals on the island.

"People on Jones Island, as you have heard, please go to the household registration department to register within three days. Each of you will obtain the legal status of a citizen. We will promulgate the latest laws to ensure everyone's rights and interests."

"Next, for the country to function normally, I will open my arms to welcome talents. I hope that citizens of Jones Island can all participate in the application process."

As Caitlin announced the news one by one, the people on the entire island could no longer contain their inner joy.

This means that not only do they not have to endure the war, but they will not be turned into slaves and sold to other places. They have legal status!
